I got crowned as ‘The Dorky Nerd King’ with the following scores:
Science / Math : 80%
Technology / Computer : 97%
Sci-Fi / Comic : 77%
History / Literature : 79%
Dumb / Dork / Awkward : 83%
Damnit….now I have to find out what kind of nerd I am.
What’s up with the history/literature??
To see if you’re a history geek. One of the prime indicators of true geekiness is an obsession — not just with computers, or games, but *anything*. History geeks tend to focus on a certain period (say, the Renaissance), or a particular person (perhaps, say, Charlemagne) and then know WAY too much about them. There were wargamers back at UNH which knew every detail about the War of the Roses you could find, probably because they were big Avalon Hill gamers. Which, let me tell you, was a particularly hardcore kind of gamer, back in the 70s.
OK – so it’s not that you’re not good at history / literature – it’s just that you are not a history “geek” – got it.
